GBiLLS DESTROYED .Four $100 Notes Sent to Washington by Mr.Naftzger THOUGHT TO BE SPURIOUS How a Wichita Real Estate Deal Was Held Up, Some o the $100 bills that had been called In -by the government about two years ago, when the great Jacobs coun terfeiting conspiracy -was discovered in Philadelphia and Lancaster, Pa., turned up in this city recently, and the report got circulated that tho city was flooded with counterfeit money. The bills were refused by a local bank and there was much uneasiness among those dealing in them until yesterday, when word was received from Washington that these par ticular bills were genuine. 3Irs. Donnell, -wife of the well known North Main street furniture man, had the bills and paid out four of them to Sirs. Monday, of North "Waco avenue, froi whom she had i-i-chased a piece of property. Sirs. Donnell pa.d them in good faith, and Sirs. Mon day received th.em likewise. The transac tion was closed at the office of Dean Gor don at a Into hour, and Mrs. Monday took the money to the Red Front Racket, and told Mr. Tapp to keep it in his safe lor her until morning. She also paid nim a store bill out of one of the bills. When Mr. Tapp went to deposit the bill at the Fourth National bank next day, the bank refused to take the bill. Then Mrs. Mon day took her bills to the bank and they -were also refused. The matter was re ported to Mrs. Donnell, who became the worse frightened one of the whole crowd, for she had the bHls in her possession for about two years, and if not genuine it would be too late to catch the counier fe.ter. Mrs. Monday refused to give pos session of her property. Mr. Naftzger, cf the Fourth National bank, sent the Jills to Washington for inspection, and to the gratification of all the department notified h m that the bills had stood the test an 3 were genuine. But "they were kept and destroyed and other hjlls were sent to re place them. These bills are of "Series D, 2S91," the engraving plates of which were stolen from the government engravers and afterward used with great success in counterfeiting. The theft created great excitement throughout the east at the time and the eastern country was flooded with bogus $100 bills which passed as gen uine without t.'is least s-gp of detection, some of them even getting back into the treasury and going through the multitud inous rounds of the counting rooms with out bedng i1at2''J. The bills were s?'d to have been the nearest perfect of any b.ll ever made outside of the government offices. The only way they could be de tected was T fi'i.T.!:2.7 il em n hot v. a ter. The entire circulation of these bills were called in, but as will be seen by this transactoin of -Mrs. Donnell, tJhere are plenty of them in circulation yet, though none of tho banks will accept tho bills without submitting them first to the treasury department.

"ROOT OF CHICAGO Eminent 3Insical Authority Com ments HIIss Clark and 3tay Festival Rev. A. U. Dubber, of the Central Chris tum church, preached a very beautiful and edifying sermon on Sunday morning, on "Music," incidentally touching on the in epiration, the historic and aesthetic value f Handel and Haydn's greatest sacred compositions. He traced step by step through the Old Testament and down through the New, the influence of music as a civilizing and harmonizing agent. He dwelt at some length on the deeply reli gious spirit that inspired the two great musicians, and told how, though two cen turies had passed. their names are still fresh and living, an inspiration yet to high aspiration. The May Musical Festival. May 30, 31 and June 1, received the highest recom mendation at the Hutchinson jubilee, from Profs. A:ien H.: Spencer and Frederick Rot ot Chicago. They were kind enough t t assure the assembly that never had the s .uthwest such an opportunity of hearing five great soloists at one time. The sing ers engaged were indorsed in the warmest terms, and the Chicago musicians added, paying a glowing tribute to Miss Jessie Clarke's ability as a musical leader, that "the chorus was an assured success if it was drilled by Miss Clarke."

It was a brilliant and worthy beginning for the regular graduating exercises of the week. The Auditorium was gayly decorated with the national colors, and the interior of the auditorium looked much handsomer and brighter than it has ever looked before. There was an immense crowd present. The lower floor was densely crowded, every seat being taken, and many stood around the edge of the room. The gal leries were a sea of faces. Music was furnished by the High school orchestra, under the leadership of Miss Clark, and the orchestra did excellent work; in fact almost equal to that of professional musi cians. The rest of the program was as follows: Oration class Orator Herbert N. Davidson. Class song Words by Munns. Music by Martindale. PIay Introducing a Freshman Music, Joy, Joy, Freedom Today.. Benedict Misses Stanley and Martindale; Messrs. Musselman and Davidson. 1rlIl Class Members Cake wa'Jc.' Class Members Song (Words by Taft; Music by Smith) Class. The play, "Introducing a Freshman," made a decided hit. The cast of charac ters included the teachers of the High school. Impersonated by the students, and some of the characters were almost per fectly represented. The cast of characters was as follows: Mr. Allen Gilbert Tucker Miss Cieaveland Bessie Meanea Mr. Stewart Edwin "Burton Miss Hamilton (Nannie Mae Combs Mr. Young Charles Musselman Miss Mills Bessie Moore Mr. Vernon Charles Hatton Miss Clark Fode Stanley Mr. Dunkin Paul Stoutemeyer Miss Bowen Mattle Jackman 3Jr. Lee John Stark Freshman Eugene Wallace The class song, the 'words and music of which are. the products of members of the High school class, was beautifully and faultlessly $ung. The music of this song was composed by Miss Martindale, and the applause of the audience showed that it had musical merit all through it. The words were written by Miss Munns, and are as follows: The shadows of evening are falling. The giad day has drawn to a close. The beautiful light of the sunbeams Still lingers In radiant glows. The past, with its beautiful mem'rles, Remaining so dear and so bright, Of days that are vanished forever( Sweep over our hearts tonight. Chorus On to the great unknown v Awaiting, so boundless and free; On to the swelling ocean, On to the murmuring sea Out of the quiet harbor Into the storm-tossed sea. Ihe bond of our union Is breaking Tho record is closed as it stands We turn to the bonds of our friendship; They change into flow'rs in our hands. Their fragrance wi'J linger forever. However we may wander afar A bond that will never be broken; A light as a shining star. Chorus Then on to the mission that calls us, With hearts-that are brave and are true; Both over life's onswelling ocean And under the skies so blue. When gathered again at Life's portals, With garlands of victory won, Lot each from the glory of conquest Receive the blest words "Well done!" The prettiest feature of the evening's program was the drill given by twenty five of the young ladies of tho High school, under the direction of Mr. C. W. Bitting. The young ladies were dressed in robes of pink, green and white, representing the class colors, and presented a scone of ex quisite grace and beauty as they filed in from the wings of the stagp to tho time of a inarch. No prettier scene has ever been seen on a Wichita stage than the drill by these ladies, and it is almost mnr velous how they could be brought to such perfection in so short a time. A well known critic in the audience said he did not discover a single error in the entire routine of the drill. All the difficult fig ures known to the military were executed with cuse nnd grace. The maltese cross, triangle, stars, circles, etc., were fault lessly executed, but when the letters "W. H. S." were outlined so clearly the crowd fairly shouted with applause. A cake walk closed the exercise of the evening, it was participated in by the following young gentlemen, arranged In couples, four of the boys being dressed to represent the lady partner: Gilbert Tuck er and Eugene Wallas.

J THE EXCEIENCE OF SYBUP OF FIGS is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also to the care and skill with which it is manufactured by scientific p'rocesses known to the California Fig Svkup Co. only, and we wish to impress upon all the importance of purchasing the true and original remedy. As the genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured by the Califokma Fig Syrup Co. only, a knowledge of that fact will assist one in avoiding the worthless imitations manufactured by other par ties. The high standing of the Cali fornia Fig Sritup Co. with the medi cal profession, and the satisfaction which the genuine Syrup of Figs has given to millions of families, makes the name of the Company a guaranty of the excellence of its remedy. It is far in advance of all other laxatives, as it acts on the kidneys, liver and bowels without irritating or weaken ing1 them, and it does not gripe nor nauseate.

COUNTING THE COST Subject of Rev, Thayer's Baccalaureate Sermon, AUDITORIUM WAS FILLED With Friends of Wichita's Public Schools. Plymouth church held its morning ser vice Sunday in the Auditorium, the occa sion being the High school baccalaureate sermon. The room was tastily decorated with plants and class colors, while over the platform was hung the class motto, "Out of the harbor into the sea." The seats in the immediate front were re served) for the class of 1S99 and the mem bers of the High school faculty and the school board. The large Auditorium, was welll filled. The music was furnished by the Plymouth quartette, with Mis-3 Helen Fisher as organist. The quartette ren dered two beautiful selections, "Jubilate Deo," by Corbin, and "The King of .Love," by Shelley. Mrs. H. W. Wilson sang Dudley Buck's "Fear Not, Ye of Israel." Mr. Thayer took as his text liuke 14:33. "Likewise, whosoever he be you that for saketh not all that he hath he cannot be my disciple." This language was Intended to repress the people who were too hastily following Jesus. Let a man count what goodness counts. The builder must see if he has enough to finish his tower. The king must not gd to war till he estimate his forces. So let every man reckon what manhood costs. The would-be piano player must surrender all for success. The youth cannot give less than all to his beloved. Authority in science requires complete surrender to the field of enquiry, and the Christ must die to save men. There is the lesson of rejecting, just as important as that of using. Today the emphasis is to be put upon poverty, not upon riches. We shall hear of restraint rather than of liberty, of sacrifices and not of self. And this is not an arbitrary method chosen by Jesus, but tho application of a large principle to be used everywhere. The text will not lead to the Ascetics cave, 'but to the king's throne. For consider what is meant by the word "disciple." Surely it does mean to be Christian. There is no basis for life ex cept Christ. The flr?t consideration of manhood; !6 self-surrender, love of others, and whatsoever w are to be in thte world we are to reckon that we are not here for our own good. But the disciple is more than a Chris tian in name. Some people are good gen erally, but not good for anything in par ticular. Some have been well taught by good teachers, but Tiave not learned any great lesson. The disciple must know one thing intensely; his goodness must seek a particular thing. Then this discipleshlp must look to equipment. The "disciple" is a "learner": he must have knowledge and training. This is the day for the trained man, and experience has proved that the farther one goes In the advantages of schools of higher learning the better his chances for success. Discipleship may be defined as equipment for some particular part of the respon sibility of perfect manhood. With this Idea of manhood we look at the conditions in the teaching of Jesus, "Forsake all that he hath." Good things cost. The soldier cannot be recluse. The politician cannot live in ease. The good man cannot revel in wrong. Let us distinguish between wrong and hindering. Nothing is wrong in itself. "Every creature is good" if it is In its place. It is wrong when out of its place. There are many delightful things, inno cent things in the worlri but they hinder your noble service. Mrs. Siddons would leave her hotel filled with the passion of the character she was to enact in the theater. What harm that she should stop to receive congratulations and praises of her friends? These were innocent and de lightful, surely, but such hindered the passion she was to have in the play, and to her such were an offense. You would be a poet, an artist, you cannot then be cumbered with politics or business. The violin is Innocent, but In the hands of Nero before burning Rome it was out of place. We must confess the fact of limitation. I should like to know all art, all history, all science, all pbclosophy everything and in perfection, but I just cannot. I am too small. We must honor the fact of surrender. This good age of ours Is due to suffering. You recall Whittier's lines: "Never on custom's oiled grooves The world -to higher levels moves, But grates and grinds with friction hard. On granite bowlder and flinty shard. Tho boast must bleed before it feels, The pool be troubled before It heals. Even by teves the right muet gala. Every good have Its birth in pain." There is a time when we may reckon that we are strong In that which we can refuse. Consider also the contrast of restraint and liberty. Says Mr. Hwob: "Of the two abstract ideas, restraint and Ubertr. the glory is always with rrtraiat.' "Why." says Alfred Momeri, te poetry more beautiful than prose? Because of restraint. Why Is the good ma nobler than the bad man? 3ecmsse of restraint. The devil can do anything that God can not do. Restraint means intensity.

The best things have never been bought. They have come unpaid from deepest poverty. "For ten pounds, you shall have a Paradise Lost, and for a plate of figs a Dured drawing, but for a million of money, sterling, neither." But this forsaking is only to intensify the one thinjj.

Land Commis-1 sioner Herman has recommended adverse artijn on a petition of the Russian Amrrican Mining and Explorng Company to the President for a modification of the executive act transferring from the War to the Interior Department the custody of that part of the Fort Michael military reservation lying north, of the sixty-fourth parallel, on the ground that such act af aCected Its rights to a. tract on Golovin Bay. The Commissoner declines to give an opm !bn on the issue pending duly initiated proceedings with a notice to all parties. "ThciT Is undoubtedly authority in the executive," he says, "to restore lands Hands when no longer needed for military purposes. The determination as to wheth er the lawi b" applicable in disposing of such lands can safriy be left until the Secretary of the Interior is of the opinion that public interests require that the Jands be placed on the market or till an application is duly presented to enter the samr under some law applicable to Alaska." I consider it not only a pleasure but a duty I owe to my neighbors to tell about tin wonderful cure effected in my case by the timely use of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea: Remedy. I was takrn very badly with flux and procured j. bittle of this remedy. A few doses of it effected a permanent cure.

The proposed na tional testimony to AdmiraL Dewey, in-the form of a fine house in Washington, may prove disappointing. So far as can be as certained, no member of the committee which has the fund in charge enjoys more than a passing acquaintance with the Ad miral, certainty not enough to warrant a satisfactory judgement as to what form of testimonial would be most acceptable to the recipient, A friendly suggestion was made to one of the committeemen that it might be wise for the committee to take some tactful means of ascertaining wheth er the Admiral would be pleased with such a gift; but it was me with such a display of bod temper and worse manners hat the author of the suggestion did not venture to discuss the subject further. The fact is, that if, before plunging into this business, some attempt had been made to get at the facts, it would not have been at all difficujt to discover that the gift of a residence property would be about the last thing likely to please the here of Manilla. Other suggestions, which came in after the first hysterical outbreak had subsided, have the right ring to them. One is to the effect that a national home for indigent, infirm, and azed .sailors hon orably discharged from the "United States navy, and bearing George Dewey's name, would be the most fitting sort of testimon ial, and one in which the generous-heartod AdmiraQ would take the keenest delight. Another suggestion is that the money should be devoted to the founding of a heme for the orphan children of "Uncle Sam's seamen and marines. Still another carries the idea of the establishment of a scholarship at some institution of learn ing, under such conditions that a certain number of the children of sailors shall have free education and maintenance there continually. AE these proposals have a practical side which the Admiral would heartily apprec iate, and they are free from some other features which -would make the testimon ial on the lines now proposed extremely distasteful, to him. One of the first mani festations In connection with the present movement was a clash between the local real-estate interests as to the cite of the Admiral's proposed new home. The next was a rather pitiful discussion whether the money shouM be raised solely by voluntary contributions or partly by "passing the hat" and dragging in the government clerks, the school-children, and all other classes from whom small subscriptions are expected on occasions when spontaniety is of the very essence of good grace. One of the oldest family friends of Admiral Dew ey thus voiced to the correspondent his own sentiments and those of a large group of others intimately acpuainted with the naval cire'e here: "The promoters of the movement to give Admiral Dewey a house had better beware le;t they do him an unintentional injury. After Admiral Worden had met with his little Monitor the giant Merrimack and beaten her, receiving in tho fight wounds from which ho was a daily sufferer ever afterward, there was much the same ex pression of feeling among the people which centres about Dewey now. Presi dent Lincoln stood by his side-bed and thanked him for 'saving the country.' Edward Everett raised a fund with which a modest house was bought with a view to providing for the hero in his old age and assuring his family of a homo after his death. Worden lived In this house till he died, and used to comfort himself in his last days with a thought, to which he gave repeated utterance among his friends, that the government would sec to it that his wife should enjoy their home for the few years sho would naturally survive him. After his death the Senate passed a bill giving Mrs. Worden J100 a month pen siona small allowance as compared with the provision for the famines of officers no more deserving than Worden;; but when this bill went over to the House, Repre sentative Bay of Xew York, chairman of the invalid pensions committee, dec'ared that it should be cut in two, as ?30 a month ould be enough. Mrs. Wordon's friends and old admirers of the Admiral, including some Senators of note, appealed to him in vain. lie simply repeated: Fifty dollars Is enough. Private soldiers' widows do not get $r0 a month, and I am for the people and the private soMier every time. Besides, look at that house; she Is already provided with a home.' The $50 idea prevailed. So the aged widow was obliged to abandon her home and t to boarding, for a house takes money to keep up. "Let Dewey's admirers beware of bur dening him with a white elephant in the way of a line house. If he could be con sulted, he would probably say, 'l do not want a house. I have no family to share it with me. My son in Xew York is dIrg well, and is independent of me. I prefer to live quietly in apartments, as I used to, instead of inviting the burdens rif hvs"- keeping, for my health Is not such ac to I warrant my undertaking much f tvat I sort of activity.

Had the speaker bren disposed to driw further analogies, be mkrht nave brought in the fact that one living general officer I of the army, who has a large and enthusi astic popular following, is today struggling under the weight of a real-estate testi monial presented to him by admirers with more zeal than discretion.

Reports re ceived by the state and navy departments iresent the facts, which have been made the basis of proper representation to the Brazilian government, o doubt is felt in official circles that the Brazilian govern ment will make a prompt investigation of the discourtesy offered to the Wilmington and that speedy action will be taken. The authorities sincerely regret that the inci dent should have arisen, because of the undoubted friendship of the Brazilian gov ernment for the United States, and they are satisfied thata all proper amends will be made.

Olin Rives, coun sel for the publishers who are charged by Rudyard Kipling with infringement of copyright, received a copy of the long-expected complaint this afternoon, in which tho author sets forth his grievances against various publishers fir having, as he claims, repriduced his books without proper authority. In the outset of his complaint, Mr. Kip ling declares that action is brought against G. P. Putnam's Sons, George Haven Putnam and Irving Putnam; also D. Appleton Co. Tne Doubleday Mc Clure Co., Charles Scribner and Arthur Scribner, trading as Charles Scribner's Sops, a,ndthe Century Company. In the body of the complaint, Mr. Kip ling alleges, in the first place, that ho is temporarily an inhabitant of the state of Vermont, and is an alien and a subject of her Majesty the Queen of Great Britain. The complaint goes on to state that the plaintiff is an author, and carried on the business of writing books, "comprising I tales, sketches, balads, verses and other literary compositions," and has been en gaged in such business for fifteen years, during which time he has carefully schooled himself In the requirements of his business, and in acquiring and devel oping a style of composition and presenta tion -hich, in his opinion, is peculiar to himself. The ground of complalntagainst the de fendants, according to the formal com plaint, is that at various times the accused publishers have gathered together under a common name a series of volumes of Mr. Kipling's works, numbered in he quence, and all forming an edition. Mr. Kipling ,sets forth in his complaint that he has only authorized one edition of his collected works in this country, that one having been published by Scribners' and known as the "Outward Bound Edition." In support of his complaint, Mr Kipling cites incidentally the fact that in collect ing the various short storiis, ballads, and vrrses which he has written from time to time for newspapers and periodicals, he has devised and appropriated in advance of all others, for the purpose of identify ing his own writings, a name in the nat uri of a trade-mark; that among the rnames so devised and first appropriated are the following: "Plain Tales from the Hills," "Soldiers Three," etc. Limited Tights for publication as indivi dual volumes were extended to various firms, but none of thrm, with the excep tion of Charles Scribners' Sons, was auth orized to publish a complete set of the author's works under one nam.e OVERCOME WITH EMOTION In an Attempt to Deliver an Anti-Briggs Sermon.

Clifford, proprietor Norwood House, Ndrwocdf JfipVf i'hisji remedyfs for sale by druggists. New York, May 22. Rev. Dr. Benjamin F. Decosta, of the Church of St. John 'the Evangelist, prepared a sermon in answer to Bishop Potter's action m ordaining Dr. Briggs and started to preach It, but after he had talked for about Ave minutes he was so overcome by emotional feeling that hepassed over the bulk of his manuscript and dismissed his congregation with a ten minute sermon. But after the service he gave out his manuscript, with the an nouncement that he was unabte to deliver it entirely. The sermon taid in part: "At the threshold of the twentieth century theological teachers all o'ver the land are declaring that the Bible was not made infallible by the guidance of God, the Hoiy Ghost. I could not select a text from any part of the Bib'e which would not be challenged by some Protestant. This sys tem of doubt and denial has entered the Episcopal church and its chief advocate has been deliberately received into the ministry. It is known as the 'higher crit icism.' This is revolution. There is now no question about the future attitude of the Episcopal church in respect to the Bible. The Scriptures are no longer to be enforced as an infallible guide. The church has relaxed the appearance of authority and its interpretations may now be governed by individual caprice." SAYS HE IS NO JONAH Dr. Brigs: Huh Xever sunli. a Hhip iu ilis 28 Voyages.

Until then her 500 cabin passengers are lodged on board or wherever they choose on shore, at the ex pense of the line. Only twenty passengers so far have cancelled their passage. Gustav H. Schwab, agent of the line, de clared yesterday that whoever wished to make other arrangements might have his money back. The Rev. Dr. Brggs is one of the passengers who remains on board. "This will make my twenty-ninth trip across the ocean," he said. "It I am a Jonah now, I never have been in the other i twenty-eight voyages." Captain Richter, of the Barbarossa, said yesterday that he was sorry to have his shipfs company criticised so severly by the passengers. "I trust," he said, "that the report of the German Consul-General and the ex perts whom he has engaged to inspect the ship and investigate the fire will prove that we are well-furnished With fire-fighting appliances and that tho crew is well drilled.

A large quantity of corn and oats underneath the cotton and cash regis ters in which the fire started will be re moved. This causes the delay in the ves sel's sailing. The grain, soaked by water, would swell, and might cause a leak which would sink the ship. Superintendent Muller, of the North German Lloyd line, visited La Bretague's peir, and with Superintendent Japhet. of the French line, arranged for a survey of the damaged vessel to determine the amount which the German line must pay. La Bretague will be disabled for several weeks. Not only must the broken and started plates in her hu3 be replaced, but her machinery, deranged by the shock, needs repairs. La Touralne, due here today fyom Havre, is the French line's fastest ship. She will be made ready to sail next Wednesday. La Bretague's passengers have the option of sailing today on tho Cunarder, Cam pania, with all expenses paid from Liver pool to their destination, or of waiting for La Touraine. La Gascogne, now in winter quarters at Havre, will be hurried into service to replace the disabled steamship. Richard J.
